Admittedly, I devour “Archer” the way I do a certain line of blue corn chips: with guilt mixed with pleasure and only once in a while. But when I do, it’s a heaping helping.

The adult animation spy spoof “Archer” returns for a third season Thursday at 11 p.m. on FX. The foul-mouthed super spy and his mother resume their bourbon-soaked love-hate relationship. I just consumed the first four episodes of the new season without taking a break, thoroughly enjoyable empty calories, and now I’m thirsty.

H. Jon Benjamin, the comedian-writer who previously provided the voice of Ben on “Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist,” does the (often blue) voicework for title character Agent Sterling Archer. The terrific Jessica Walters (“Arrested Development”) does the voice of his insane mom, Malory Archer. Malory is a wealthy narcissistic alcoholic who runs the International Secret Intelligence Service, or ISIS, based in New York.

Aisha Tyler, Judy Greer, Chris Parnell and Amber Nash round out the cast; the series was created by Adam Reed.

FX will launch a new animated series, “Unsupervised,” following “Archer” at 11:30 p.m. There’s no comparison. One’s a spoofy, sarcastic and hilarious exercise in adult animation. The other is a gross-out cartoon.

Fans of “Archer” likely won’t sit still for the more juvenile antics of “Unsupervised.”

“Judas,” a new novel by Amos Oz, is a paradox of stillness and provocation. The Israeli author, a long-rumored contender for the Nobel Prize, has reduced the physical action of this story to a tableau of domestic grief.
